TL;DR

HomeCare system is compact remote monitoring system of base life functions primarily but not only standard biosignals like ECG and others can give us information about changes in state of health of monitored man.

Abstract

HomeCare system is designed, developed and realized in our laboratory and special Test flat. It is compact remote monitoring system of base life functions primarily. But not only standard biosignals like ECG and others can give us information about changes in state of health of monitored man. One of the possible monitored values can be circadian rhythm.The monitoring of the circadian rhythm of people in HomeCare systems is very usable. Each man has own rhythm. This rhythm is periodical for elderly people. In case the life cycle is changed, we can deduce some heath problem will occur.This article shows our designed a tested technical solutions for circadian rhythm monitoring single elderly man in his flat and methods of interpretation.
